The 96-tone Carrillo piano and the 31-tone Fokker organ will engage in both musical dialogue and confrontation throughout this concert. This will be expressed in a new work by composers Torsten Anders and Martin Lo-A-Njoe, written especially for this occasion. In addition, a new, short yet powerful piece by the renowned Mexican/Dutch composer Juan Felipe Waller for prepared Carrillo piano and Fokker organ will be performed. The evident contest between the two instruments will further unfold in an impro-battle, performed by musicians Maarten van Veen and Ere Lievonen. Existing works from the repertoire of these remarkable microtonal instruments will also be featured. The programme includes
